Uefa has been asked to look into the treatment of England fans who attended last week’s 2-1 Euro 2024 qualifying win over Italy in Naples.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Bus issues were followed by four ticket checks at the heavily-policed Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

England fans <\/span>told the BBC<\/span><\/a> they were charged at by police and struck with batons when trying to enter the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the match, Three Lions supporters were kept in the stadium for an hour after full-time.<\/span><\/p>\n

The England Supporters Travel Club, run by the Football Association, said: “We know many of you are unhappy at what went on, both before and after the game against Italy.<\/span><\/p>\n

In an email to fans, it added: “We have received some very detailed accounts since the match and share many of the concerns and frustrations.<\/span><\/p>\n

“On Monday, we met with a representative from the travelling UK Policing to hear their view and discuss the circumstances. They too faced a very challenging situation, as did our staff on the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n

“The Football Supporters’ Association has also raised significant concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Taking all of this into account, we are asking Uefa to conduct a review of what happened on Thursday night. We will keep you posted on how this unfolds.”<\/span><\/p>\n

England recorded their first victory in Italy since 1961, with Harry Kane becoming the nation’s <\/span>all-time record goalscorer<\/span><\/a> in the win.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We appreciate the time you give, and the expenses incurred in following England,” the ESTC continued.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Our paramount concern is your safety and wellbeing. We work hard to make sure travelling to watch the team is as enjoyable as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

“On this occasion it was not, despite the months we spent planning while working in good faith with the authorities in Naples.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We are sorry that what should have been a wonderful occasion watching our first win in Italy since 1961 was not, for many of you.”<\/span><\/p>\n
